Open Print Studio Introduction – Silkscreen (NPS)

1 Sunday
August 31
1 pm – 5 pm

Ages 16+

This workshop is for artists interested in print studio membership and is a way for you to gain certification to book open studio time for silkscreen process’. This introduction course will prepare students for safe use of our studio and become familiar with the silkscreen process through working on a two color layer print. Students will learn to coat their screens with photo emulsion, expose transparencies on our exposure unit, print, register their color layers, and clean their screens. Print studio manager Micah Fornari will guide students on how to create hand-drawn transparencies and explore how different materials can grant varying qualities. Students will have the alternate opportunity of printing one digital transparency for the class.

All materials provided.
